During the Yankees-Rays game on Thursday night, Jazz Chisholm, an infielder for the Yankees, was ejected in the top of the seventh inning due to a debatable strike three call.
Then he took to social media to voice his frustration.
Home plate umpire John Bacon made the call on a full count to the second baseman with the pitch from Rays pitcher Mason Montgomery appearing to be way outside the strike zone.
The strikeout call — with the Yankees up 6-3 and a runner on first base — infuriated Chisholm, leading the Yankee approaching the home plate ump to voice his frustration.


Chisholm became increasingly animated, even as manager Aaron Boone came out of the dugout, and Bacon eventually tossed Chisholm from the game.
Boone had to restrain Chisholm from further engaging with Bacon before he eventually started to walk back to the Yankee dugout.
However, Chisholm wasn’t done there and took to his X account to dispute the call.
“Not even f–king close!!!!!” Chisholm wrote.
Chisholm walked and struck out prior to being ejected from the game.
